The Silk Finisher - Bigotry...

Daniel Melchior

What happens when toxicity invades a life at every turn? 
 
 
 
A 1963 murder leads to a decade-long journey for a son to uncover truths about his family, an American town, and ultimately himself. 
 
 
 
In the "Crossroads of America," three active-duty US Army paratroopers commit a more heinous crime than the one they are trying to cover up. Their arrests and trial shock and divide residents of the town between those who see the soldiers as heroes and those who view them as cold-blooded killers. 
 
 
 
Author Dan Melchior unearths the story of Rudolph Ziemer, known by some as the "Queer Undertaker." Along the way, he uncovers forgotten often toxic stories involving the Cold War and the Jim Crow south, infidelity, addiction, bigotry, murders, and accidents all woven into the fabric of one woman's life as a laboring silk finisher. The stories link the Civil Rights era to World War II to the march of the MAGA movement and parallel the divisions and challenges facing America today. Journey along with Melchior as he discovers how one man's murder—someone he never knew—led him to a deeper understanding of his family, his beliefs, his country, and his triumphant relationship with his mom, a silk finisher.

Unsolved Mysteries - Uncovering...

John Harpoon

This book consists of two titles: 
- The Kraken: The Kraken, a legendary sea monster whose name evokes images of terror and fascination, has captivated the imaginations of people for centuries. First emerging from the shadows of Scandinavian folklore, this giant creature—often described as a massive octopus or squid—has become one of the most iconic symbols of the unknown depths of the ocean. The allure of the Kraken lies in its mysterious nature, its ability to stir both fear and wonder, and the enduring question: is it merely a myth, or could there be some truth behind the legend? 
- The World's Youngest Criminal Genius: In the annals of crime, there are few figures as captivating or as puzzling as Michael McCrudden, often dubbed "The World's Youngest Criminal Genius." This title, given by the media and sensationalized through various reports, paints a picture of a brilliant, almost calculating young mind who orchestrated elaborate criminal schemes before reaching adulthood. But who was Michael McCrudden really, and what drove him to the heights of criminality at such a tender age? The concept of a "criminal genius" is fraught with paradoxes. On one hand, it invokes admiration for the ingenuity behind complex scams and heists, while on the other, it raises questions about morality, ethics, and the law. McCrudden’s story is one of talent gone awry, where a sharp intellect that could have achieved greatness in legitimate fields was instead channeled into subversive and illegal activities. His life forces us to grapple with uncomfortable truths about how society sometimes rewards intelligence in the wrong contexts.

Beating Chains - Falsely Accused...

Rusty Labuschagne

‘Few would’ve survived Rusty’s ordeal – an incredible story of hope and resilience’ - Stephen McGown, author of Six Years a Hostage 
Rusty Labuschagne has been through a trauma few have experienced and disclosed. In 2003, the successful Zimbabwean businessman, who ran a safari outfit, flew his own aircraft and had a fishing resort on Lake Kariba, was framed by a poacher, the police, and the courts and wrongfully convicted of drowning a poacher.

Rusty lost everything he had worked so hard for, but most of all, his freedom. His story is a testament to his extraordinary resilience in conditions most would find unbearable. 
He shares the life lessons he learned – how to harness your inner strength, how to forgive, and how to show gratitude – as he found true freedom through sincerity and humility. 
Rusty’s is an inspiring story of true grit in the face of great adversity, of a man who loses everything as he is broken by a corrupt political system, but who then rises to fight that system on his own terms. In doing so he rebuilds himself from the inside out.
